FOREWORD 

The various lists which comprise the present volume 
include no new compilation; Presidents, Signers, Conti- 
nental Congress, Generals of the Revolution and Civil War, 
all have been compiled and published before. Not before, 
however, have these and the many others in the pages that 
follow been included in one compact volume. The lists are 
complete, have been corrected and revised to date, from 
Government and other reliable sources, and include addi- 
tional data acquired through careful research. 

The "Biographies in Brief" of the Presidents and Sign- 
ers are a feature of this work. Public offices held, principal 
events and dates are set down without minor details or 
comment. 

I have endeavoured to prepare, primarily, a work which 
should be a valuable aid to autograph collectors; it should 
also be useful to librarians, historians, etc. The volume is 
now presented in the hope that it may satisfy these expecta- 
tions and possibly stimulate interest in collecting the auto- 
graphs of those men who laid the foundation, who reared 
the structure and who helped to perpetuate this nation.

"No American public man," says the Encyclopaedia 
Brittanica, "in the history of the country has achieved 
such extraordinary popularity as Mr Roosevelt has 
attained at fifty years of age both at home and abroad." 

[25] 



Mr. Roosevelt is the author of several important 
works. His history of the War of 1812, "Naval Operations 
of the War between Great Britain and the United States, 
1812-1813," written when he was 24 years old is the stand- 
ard history of that conflict. His "Winning of the West," 
1889-96, is probably the best work which has been written on 
American frontier life of the 19th century. He has also 
written "Big Game Hunting in the Rockies and on the 
Plains," 1889; "African Game Trails," 1910; "Fear God 
and Take Your Own Part," 1915; etc.

Note. — This list comprises all of Gen. Washington's regularly 
appointed Aids and Secretaries. It does not include, however, the 
many individuals who were transiently at Headquarters and oc- 
casionally pressed into service as amanuenses, a fact which accounts 
for the several Washington "war letters" in handwritings which 
have not been identified. Martha Washington served in the capacity 
of aid on one or two occasions and wrote military letters at the dicta- 
tion of the Commander-in-Chief.

The Chief Justices and Associate Justices 

OF THE Supreme Court of the 

United States 

The judicial power of the United States government is vested 
by the Constitution in one Supreme Court, and in such inferior courts 
as Congress may from time to time establish. The number of the 
judges of the Supreme Court is also fixed by Congress. It consists 
at this time of a chief-justice and eight associate justices. They are 
appointed by the President, confirmed by the Senate, hold office dur- 
ing good behavior, and receive a compensation w^hich cannot be 
diminished during their term of office. 

On attaining the age of seventy years, a justice of the court is 
entitled (if he has served ten years) to retire upon the same com- 
pensation during his life which he has received while on the bench. 
The court sits at Washington, from October till May, with short 
intermediate recesses.
